NP3 - I have bought many kits and always have extra. I am thinking find a store that is reliable and use them. I notice the LQS that make up their own, are often short from what I hear from friends. hope you don't give up on them. I like to find and match my own for patterns but kits are great for retreats and such. YOu don't have time to think when you are there. LOL. hint...hint ...I do love yours better.♥♥♥
